this thing is heavy, if you buy local, save you couple hundred of shipping fees, I would go for the $800 and save a bit more to get the wise 2086 head in the future, the 2nd one definitely used, scratch from the machine at all 4 corners, wears on the base of the clamps, and the rail , where the base moving back and ford. if u can negotiate further down, base on "scratch from moving" to "Used machine" the price will be much more less, in Dec 2012 someone in Niagara falls area listed this machine on kijiji for $500 used condition and sell in the winter. I had string 3 racquets with this machine, not too bad compare with other machines, i'll be happy to have this and wise head for $1100 Can. I may interested in the crank if you decide to go wise head.

I agree, definitely get the Wise 2086 machine with the cheaper of the two options you have. It will be far more beneficial. Additionally, you can use the crank if the Wise ever breaks down.

There are a few places you can order the Wise, though if you're shipping to Canada from any of these places, you might incur an import fee:
-Wise @ tennishead.com
-watdon.co.uk
-tennis-warehouse.com
-ATS sports

I would say stick with Wise and tennis-warehouse, especially if there's someone in USA that can let you use their address and you can pick it up from them.
